Correct 

Lol no, actually the exact opposite has been argued by the pro-Cronin crowd for weeks. Complete fabrications to make their argument sound decent.

This should go without saying obviously, but there will be no press conference tomorrow. I’ll be able to take the lid off a bit later in the week. But will say this, anybody providing details right no

I’ve had several PM’s so wanted to drop a quick line to the broader board. Love this group and fully intend to continue to contribute to the community, Im not going anywhere. (Sorry to a few of you) B

So I couldn’t get much from him unfortunately. But, to me that’s a good thing. There’s been pretty much zero chatter, nor leaks for a month about coaches. He said it doesn’t matter that the season is

Eric is the one that says he likes LA. Eric is friends with him. Obviously if he could get a better situation he would take it but he doesn't hate LA and UCLA by any means.

Kevin Keatts fired. It was an earned canning, but final four into the unemployment line is crazy. 

Has that been confirmed yet?  I've only seen it in a barstool tweet.

That was a fluke.  They sucked all year and had the ACC tourney and tournament run.  That is why I liked IU making the call early.  Prevent any stupidity from happening.  Shouldn’t have given Keatts the extra year.

This is indiana. Assistant possibly but don't rule out we strike out and he fits dolsons ideal coach criteria and gets the head gig lol

Ya don’t say? Lol

I am just saying you look at the whole body of work not just one fluke year or one tournament run.  Always hated the interim coach hire or letting a guy stay because of a run.  Never really works out a lot. Look at this year with Diebler.  Dumb, dumb, dumb.

That  fluke FF run did earn him another year plus a raise and extension which likely results in a higher buyout. So he has that going for him.

It just goes to show that the NCAAT is wild  and crazy things happen. 1 good run does not indicate a good coach, nor does a flameout or two indicate a bad coach. They're data points in the larger resume.

On the other hand, a coach with a recent FF is available with no buyout! Imagine what he could do with IU's resources! lol

I even believed it for awhile. Then I looked into it and read articles of him talking about UCLA and it did not sound like somebody wanting to leave. He clearly loves living in LA, he just doesn't like the cross country away games. Which honestly sounds like a fair trade.

I thought he was going to get fired last year. But they won the ACC tournament and got into the dance and made a run. He isn’t a good coach and he got an additional year bc of 1 run. He is the prime example of why I think k regular season success should be more important than NCAA success when hiring a new head coach.

So much of the tournament requires the bracket to break your way. I don't get too worked up over a lack of tourney success. Getting there every year like clockwork is more important.
